A graphic illustration of the planned development in Somerset West.
EXCLUSIVITY PER EXCELLENCE: ONLY FOR A SELECT FEW
WorldClass estate launches in H’berg Somerset West is home to a new luxury development – Willowbrook Estate. This exclusive development of only five homes is situated opposite the world-renowned Morgenster Olive Estate, and next to Willowbrook Lodge. The property is being developed by Hengrave Estates (Pty) Ltd under the direction of David Kain and Nicholas Bone. “When we were introduced to this property by Harcourts we knew it was special,” says David Kain. “Where else can one find a property bordered by the spectacular Lou-
rens River, peppered with majestic trees and with panoramic views of the mountains and orchards?” The five luxury homes, designed by architect Abrie Jordaan, have been designed to maximise the setting and the views, whilst at the same time creating maximum privacy for the residents. All the homes will be built to the exacting standards that Hengrave Estates is known for, but with a range of revolutionary features never before seen in the Helderberg basin. The estate will enjoy fibre-optic connections to each home, which will allow high-speed data and control of state-of-the-art home automa-
tion systems and security from anywhere in the world. Home automation is taken to the next level, with automated lighting with mood settings, and audio and HD video streaming to the entire property through your portable devices. Security is also at the control of your fingertips from anywhere in the world. The estate will be completely and tastefully secured with electric fencing and keypad access to the private open spaces leading down to the river. The Guard House and entrance will be monitored by CCTV cameras. Marketed by Harcourts Platinum, only five buyers will have the
opportunity to secure this lifestyle. Says principal of Harcourts, Steve Caradoc-Davies: “We are privileged to market these exclusive properties for Hengrave Estates. Not only will the homes be built to the highest standards, but there will also be excellent security so that residents have complete peace of mind.” The location is truly unique and care has been taken to keep the trees and maintain the magical ambiance of the site. The Lourens River is the only South African river that is officially a protected natural environment. There is over 2 800 m of landscaped private open space rolling down to the river for the exclusive
use of the residents. Walkways, viewing platforms, and relaxation areas will add to the natural beauty of this space. The designer homes offer four bedrooms, a study area, multiple living areas with access to undercover patio’s, and all the luxury finishes a discerning buyer would expect, as well as some they don’t. Additional touches include wine cellars, swimming pools, water features and automated irrigation, to mention just a few. Purchasers will be able to personalise their homes from a developer’s luxury range. Prices start at R 7 900 000, including VAT.

LUXURY SALOON: JAGUAR XF WITH GROUND-BREAKING TECHNOLOGY
Upgrades galore for the Jaguar XF MOTORPRESS The latest iteration of the Jaguar XF medium-sized executive is now available at all Jaguar dealerships, boasting more ground-breaking technology than ever before. This takes the form of extended navigation, which combines two separate mapping packages as a single, integrated solution, to give Jaguar XF drivers an unprecedented course-plotting capability, allowing for safe and efficient travel. This applies not just in South Africa but also beyond the borders. Said Kevin Flynn, Managing Director of Jaguar Land Rover South Africa and sub-Sahara Africa: “The XF continues to offer a compelling blend of style, performance and refinement, and with the most recent update it remains a middleweight which will appeal to those who insist on the finer things in life. “For these people their time is one of the most important commodities and with extended navigation they can use time even more efficiently by getting straight to where they want to go, with minimal bother thanks to exceptional intuitiveness and usability, not to mention an impressive array of features. These include lane guidance and historical traffic information, the application of which can speed up one’s journey significantly. As well as extended navigation, the newcomer introduces additional convenience features; such as rear park aid for Luxury deriv-
atives, and reverse-park camera for Premium Luxury derivatives. The 3.0-litre diesel and 3.0-litre petrol models boast a subtle boot lip spoiler. This spoiler is optional on the 2.2-litre diesel and 2.0-litre petrol models, while a full aerodynamic package – which adds a revised front bumper, black grille with chrome surround, body-coloured rear valance and “R” style side sills – is also available. The Black
Pack – offered as a stand alone or in addition to the Aero pack – adds further gravitas thanks to the gloss black side window surrounds, black grille surround and black bootlid garnish. As far as the interiors are concerned, Premium Luxury models can be enhanced with the Sport Pack; which comprises heated and cooled front seats in soft grain leather, bright stainless steel pedals, and Jet Morzine treatment for
the headlining and the roof pillars. A television tuner and number of sound system and interior veneers allow each owner to create a custom look and feel. The MY14.5 XF range comprises eight models, with a choice of four engines: two turbo-diesels (2.2-litre four-cylinder and 3.0-litre V6), a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol with 177 kW, as well as the supercharged 3.0-litre V6 with 250 kW and 450 Nm. The flagship of the
range is the 405 kW V8-engined XFR-S, a heady blend of exceptional performance along with superb dynamic ability. The slightly less dramatic and marginally slower 375 kW XFR remains available. “The XF range has been the Jaguar brand’s mainstay for a number of years and with this latest round of changes will continue to play an important role in our model line-up,” concluded Flynn.

Subaru WRX scoops top safety award QUICKPIC With exactly one week to go before the all-new Subaru WRX makes its South African debut, the 2014 Subaru WRX and WRX STI have been awarded the 2014 Top Safety Pick Award by US crash test giant, the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS), for good performance in each of the Institute’s crashworthiness evaluations, including the small overlap front test.
